Figure 5. Concentrations of AdoMet, AdoHcy, AdoMet/AdoHcy ratio and betaine in tissues homogenates of liver, brain and heart in rats nutritional models of HHcy.
HM: High methionine diet; HMLV: High methionine low B vitamin diet (B6, B9, B12); LV: Low vitamin diet (B6, B9, B12); Controls: standard rodent diet; Comparisons were made using the Mann–Whitney test between controls and each group of diet induced HHcy (HMLV, HM and LV respectively). Only the significant comparisons (P<0.05) using the Mann–Whitney test are represented in the figures.
